Website One: Further development

THE BIG RISK:
The idea of using raw materials came with a huge risk. The construction of every single part of the website was very time consuming, let alone having to do it using two different materials. This process was extremely time consuming and left us little time to actually build the fully interactive website. As well as having the second website in the back of our minds this was a very stressful time, not knowing how successful the concept was eventually become!

Here are the final cardboard buildings and the various assets (such as clouds and birds) that will be animated on screen. During the construction of these pieces we were all fairly confident that this idea would work successfully.

OK, now that we have constructed all of the cardboard and material assets now is the time to put them all together and see how successful each concept is... fingers crossed!!!

After building both concepts in photoshop we were very pleased with the outcome of both website, particularly the material website that we were all quite unsure about.

Hooray for 'hand made' things - they just look better!!!
